The Law of the Multi-Leg Stool
definition:
The law of multi-leg stools, also known as the longboard theory, refers to the fact that if a bench with multiple legs of different lengths wants to be as stable as possible, instead of raising the shortest leg, it reduces the longest leg. Increasing the distance between the legs of the stool also increases stability.
Experience:
1. If the management level finds that a certain technical staff of a certain team has too high ability and cannot improve the ability of other team members in a short period of time, if it cannot be entrusted with important tasks, then this person should be transferred out
2. If your technical ability is very outstanding in your team, and you are a little out of the way, and you are not valued enough, then consider changing the environment
Matthew effect
definition:
Good is better, bad is worse, more is more, less is less
Experience:
1. Follow high-growth teams in high-growth industries
2. Engage in or invest in related fields in high-growth industries
The barrel effect (short board effect)
definition:
For a bucket to be filled with water, every plank must be the same level and not damaged. If one of the planks of the bucket is uneven or there is a hole under one of the planks, the bucket cannot be filled with water. It means that how much water a wooden bucket can hold does not depend on the longest piece of wood, but on the shortest piece of wood.
Experience:
1. The weak of your team is the bottleneck in the same role. If the difference is too large and the speed of ability improvement cannot keep up with the speed of business development, it may be good for him to ask him to leave.
2. Don’t let people’s weaknesses become your own competition bottleneck, that is to say, your weaknesses can’t be the wooden board on that barrel
The Butterfly Effect
definition:
Small changes in initial conditions can drive long-term huge chain reactions of the entire system. This is a chaotic phenomenon. There are fixed numbers and variables in the development of any thing. In the process of development, the development trajectory of things has rules to follow, and there are also unmeasurable "variables". A small change can affect the development of things, indicating that the development of things is complex.
Experience:
1. Pay attention to the small timings of important parties, such as policies
Long-tail theory (Pareto distribution, law of twenty-eight)
definition:
The three are the same, but the meaning and focus are different. Take the picture as an example.
The ordinate is output, the abscissa is payment
The long tail theory emphasizes that the area of the black part in the above figure is larger than the white part, and the black part represents the long tail part
Pareto distribution, the law of 28 emphasizes that little effort produces the greatest benefit
Experience:
1. Sometimes it's the long tail, not the short head, that beats the competition
2. The growth rate of enterprises in the early stage of entrepreneurship is similar to the short head part, but the road behind is actually longer
